One for the money by Janet Evanovich: She is a wonderful author!
Plum Lovin' by Janet Evanovich: Loved it.
For Women Only by Shaunti Feldhahn: It was an awesome book that was very insightful as far as what goes on in the minds of men.
S is for Silence by Sue Grafton: I thoroughly enjoyed this book, it kept me guessing until the end. The format was new to the series, but not hard to follow at all.
Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen: A wonderful reminder that everyone has a story to tell, no matter how old or young they are.
Sisterchicks in gondolas by Robin Jones Gunn: I think this is my favorite Sisterchicks book of all! I laugh every time I read about them riding matteresses down the stairs!
The Blue Cotton Gown by Patricia Harman: Non-fiction "memoirs of a midwife". Real life accounts of a nurse-midwife's encounters and relationship with her patients in the exam room. I didn't want the book to end, you feel a connection with the 'characters' and wonder how their lives develop. Very well written in a diary-style book. A fun, heartwarming read.
Michigan Fresh by Don and Mary Hunt: If you need a rough outline of what treats are to be found in Michigan this book is for you. Prices are out of sync and businesses may or may not be there, but hey, it's the journey not the destination.
The Family Jensen by William Johnstone: After having read approximately all 25 or so mountain man books, it was nice to read one where the 3 main characters met together for a story.
Return of the Mountain Man by William Johnstone: It was a great book.
Every secret thing by Laura Lippman: Kept me hanging, really made me want to finish so I could find out. A bit confusing at times, and not a very satisfying end, but a pretty good book nontheless.

THE BOOK THAT STARTED IT ALL... Witty, fresh, and full of surprises, "One for the Money" catapulted Janet Evanovich and her incomparable heroine Stephanie Plum into crime-writing superstardom. Watch out, world. Here comes Stephanie Plum, a bounty hunter with attitude. She's from the "burg," a blue-collar pocket of Trenton, New Jersey, where cars are American, windows are clean, and dinner is served at six. No exceptions. Stephanie lives five miles from her parents, trying to sever the world's longest umbilical cord. Mom is a meddler, and eccentric Grandma Mazur is a few cans short of a case. Out of work, Stephanie blackmails her bail bondsman cousin, Vinnie, into giving her a try as an "agent." She knows zilch about the job, but she figures her new pal, fearless bounty hunter Ranger, can teach her whatever it takes. Her first assignment: nail Joe Morelli, a former cop on the run from a murder charge. He's also the irresistible jerk who took Stephanie's virginity and wrote the details on the bathroom wall of Mario's Sub Shop...and there's still powerful chemistry between the two. But chasing Joe could prove very dangerous -- while on the case, she encounters Benito Ramirez, a heavyweight boxer known for his brutality to women. His terrifying obsession with Stephanie complicates her manhunt, and it just might lead to murder. Meet Stephanie Plum in this thrilling, laugh-out-loud outing that made Janet Evanovich a household name. |
